After downloading the 2.36 and seing that it doesn't make a diffrence at all it left me wondering. What if it is actually information that will be used in the XMB or Trophy system and just requires a few lines of code to be activated.

This update was quite long and doesn't make a diffrence to the the PSN etc so its the only resonable explination I can come up with and along with the blogs announcement of 2.4 I think this update places its release as much sooner than we would think.

Its entirely possible the internet will die if a gaming site rumour is correct and it releases on the 18th. Imagine that a gaming site getting something right :O.

The updates are always long because you download the entire firmware every time, plus whatever they added.

Seen as updates carry all previous updates with them ther wud be no point for releasing half an update early as it wud just mean be downloaded again later.

in my mind the update was exactly wat sony said it was

You may have a point, I feel that there could have been some parts of HOME codeing being downloaded with firmware updates. I don't think that there was really anything from Sony saying that HOME will be one single update.

The update brief was that the firmware update 2.36 was released to help stabalize certain games online. that was it and that's why there is no visible difference.

Wow, way to speculate.

No wonder crazy rumors and things start.

Too bad Sony's VERY OWN BLOG released information saying the 2.36 was just to increase stability for certain titles....

It's not some 'underlying 2.40 that just needs activation.......' :roll:

Why would Sony release part of the update or all of it waiting for acitivation.
It would have to be finished/ activated by another download
And all downloads contain all previous downloads so it wud just be pointless.
its not like its the first time Sony have released a games support update
